Lanvin pronunciation was horrendously wrong
Geovane Morgan pretty much all of the French ones were horrific!!
True.
I thought the same... it should sound something like saying „the wine“ in french but with „la“ instead of „le“. am i right?
ITS LAN VON GOD DAMMIT
Demna Gvasalia is a Georgian name, there are no silent letters in Georgian, soooo....
Bro, you can't give advice on how to pronounce these names if you can't pronounce them correctly yourself. Come on lady..
Exactly. Who died and put her in charge:)
its not "d-eee-mna " lol. its actually DEMNA. What you said is wrong is actually the right way to say it.
Was so waiting for the vetements
+Bethany H haha yes!!
Vet monts
Ve` te mon, as Demna says.
Vet mon
ve --te-- mon
As a French person:
- Thierry Mugler: tee-eh-ree muh-glare
- Nicolas Ghesquiere: Nicolas Gueh-kiaire
- Sonia Rykiel: Sonia Ree-kiel
- Balmain: Bahl-meh
- Hermès: Her-mess
- Comme des Garcons: Kohm deh Garsson (without the "n" at the end)
wait, isn't the h in hermès silent?
Gustavo Borges indeed my friend
Rykiel is not a french name tho
An american expounds pronunciation .... The irony
You and Garance Dore are possibly my greatest inspirations when it comes to writing and blogging. During this video all I was attracted to was that giant board of notes and ideas. I have one like it in my office (at home, a lot smaller). Would you ever consider diving into giving blogging tips? How to grow in it? How to manage ideas? They're constantly flying out of me, but more often than not I feel too litter, too inadequate. That in itself is a problem.
someone please make a fund for americans to learn some basic french vowells like it's not that hard it takes 10 seconds to learn jeez
fuck the way she pronounces ain makes me so angry lmao
Yeah no. No one cares about the french or anything French.
Please don’t let her leave you thinking that all Americans are this way:/
Enie Goetze all Americans aside from Cajuns since we speak better French than the French 😎
No ...we don't have to. And we don't go around being a pretentious jerk about how you say our words because you are French. Not a big deal
Someone was telling me the other day it's Ralph Lau-REN
Haha I've heard people say that to.
+Heather Bennett no i have done extensive research on this topic and i can confidently say its pronounced lauren as in the girls name
+Heather B My mom owns his Romance fragrance and will pronounce it that way when she talks about her go-to perfume. I really don't see there being a conflict with the difference, as thousands of people are probably pronouncing it the plain way all the time.
They probably think that due to the pronciation of Sophia Loren.
Ralph even says it's just Lauren not Lau-REN
The pronunciation of Demna Gvasalia, I mean the one you claim to be wrong is actually very correct.
Lille Absandze the "g" is not silent?
Georgian so, no the g wont be silent.
Eric Wu what about the "v"?
its a light G and then a heavy va if u can imagine how that would sound like
Eric Wu I imagine it's the sound of hacking a lugi.
it actually is R(EE)kiel not RYkiel though !
- "Every Designer Name You Can't Pronounce" - and neither do you:)
Demna Gvasalia is pronounced not like Deemna Vasalia, but like Demna (e like egg, elephant) GGGGvasalia.
Almost all names that are not English/American are pronounced completely wrong here. If interested, go to Vfiles channel to get the right pronunciation.
Haha Ann Demeulemeester was totally off, like every vowel is different
Also, Gurung actually is pronounced Gooroong.
I mean, idk, maybe Prabal wants to make Guhruhng official (I haven't heard him say it himself) but in Nepali, it's Gooroong ...
Dying at the thought of "her-meez" (Hermes)
I would love to see vids of the man repeller offices ALSO YOUR CONTENT CALENDAR IN THE BACK IS THAT DRY ERASE? I need
hilarious....and weirdly entertaining.love it
Prabal like trouble! He was my neighbor in the Loeb hall dorms. I remember him introducing him that same way. He wasn't even trouble back then, he was shy.
"Smells like pizza in here"
*ignoring intensifies*
+playdohBABE i bet she is fired after the filming ahaha
+piloto haha they're best friends I'm sure she won't mind
G is not silent in Gvasalia
Every one just needs to go watch the i-D video on this
Wtf barely every italian and french name you prounounced it wrong...
Sam Erre also georgian.
LMAO!!! I loved this video!! I loved how she pronounced French names with a French pronunciation (even tho she forgot to pronounce Lanvin and Rykiel the French way..) :'D
her cadence was so off that i found it comedic
This had me LOLing.
Gosh It's not hard to say Demna Gvasalia, sounds like for Americans everything is hard to pronounce, if it's not English. Very easy to read Georgian names, or Georgian in general. You read and pronounce the way, it's written.
you're doing such important work, keep it up. forget med school.
Monique Lhuiller is Filipino and we actually pronounce her last name differently: loo-wil-yer.
I'm not sure where the name actually originates from (maybe Spanish) as we have been colonized by them. I believe the correct pronunciation of anything is determined by the very person that started or owns it.
not at all. She's French and Filipino, her father's French, her mom's Filipino. Her name is her father's name, so it's French and it's pronounced MOH NEEK LUH EEL YEAH
I was waiting for maison margiela
The Belgian names do not even come close to how you should pronounce them. But it was worth the try anyway.
So true
where is that jacket from ? :'(
Actually, you pronounce Demna's name wrong. You should pronounce his name without applying English or French rules of omitting certain letters in certain situations. So you should pronounce G "in Gvasalia" and you should say D-e-mna, not D-i-mna. Both - name and last name are of Georgian origins and we pronounce all the letters incorporated in the name.
Stop, this is so cute.
I was hoping for a Han Kjøbenhavn struggle
this shit is so funny. its just so damn straight. leandra is everything. why aren't there more videos on her.
Lanvin & Sonia Rykiel were pronounced wrong.
Loeffler Randall?
A friend told me about a woman in a department store in Detroit wanting Arpege. She asked the salesgirl for "Our Piggie."
it's actually sonia rykiel with an "e" sound on the y
You got it wrong for, Thierry Mugler, Ralph Lauren and more.
At least she got Proenza Schouler correct.
wish you had stuck with the "pronunciation tools" on Demna Gvasalia, because that's exactly how it's pronounced.
Demna Gvasalia was actually wrong, because here in Georgia we pronounce each word just the way we write it
Im sorry Leandra, did I miss the part where you actually pronounced Loewe? Still don't know how to say it! xx
+Luz Kaplan Low-EV-ay :)
Male Model Corp 3 We'll have to agree to disagree.
no it is not!! it's LÖWE okay?? at leat that would be the correct pronounciation i don't know the designer
secondgradedropout lol it is not like low it's lo-eh-veh it's from Spain btw
Loewe is a German name (though it's a Spanish brand) so Male Model Corp 3 is correct -- it's /lo-e-ve/
...can't take my eyes of those pistachios in the background!!!
you actuality spelled Demna Gvasalia wrong it's Demna not [deeemna] it's Georgian name and in Georgian we dont have silent letters
im a spanish speaker and hearing you pronounce maria Cornejo made me question your pronounciation of the other names... jojo
Monique Lhuillier is Loo-weel-yehr. That's how we say it in the Philippines.
Leandra great teacher
Ahn Duh Meulen (pronounce 'eu' like how you would pronounce the 'i' in bird) mehster. Not pronounced as the English Ann, not Mule, not meester. Just a little Flemish lesson--hope that helps! :)
Thanks
I think Lanvin is more like: lawn van
Goo roong’s totally fine
დემნა გვასალია, ჩვენი სიამაყე!! cool!
It wasn’t until Ralph Lauren I realized this entire video is invalid 😂
Adorei 😘
Pour les marques françaises que vous prononcez de manière incorrect, il suffit que vous vérifiez ici : fr.youglish.com/pronounce/lanvin/french/fr?
For French brands that you pronounce incorrectly, just check here: fr.youglish.com/pronounce/lanvin/french/fr?
For the "prabal gurung" you got to say prabal like trouble.
Isn't Lanvin pronounced with "UH"?
isnt it "Ralph La-Ren", not like "lauren" , Lauren Conrad
No. It's Lauren. Like Lauren Conrad.
Forever21?
I'm surprised Moschino isn't in this video... I hear people mispronounce it all the time.
omg most of the names are pronounded just soooo wrong haha
Hey, you´re super cool!!!
the "p" is silent in comptoir des cotonniers
L'Occitane. Lock-See-Tan.
I thought Lanvin was “Lon-Von”?
Is that Rick Owens
can we just be best friends already
Demna Gvasalia's pronounciation was sooo wrong :D I am from his country Georgia and can confirm that Leandra was not correct
the "an" is Lanvin is not a sound that exists in English but if you know how to pronounce the sound "em" in the french word " temps" meaning " time" or the " an in " anglais " as for "English " you will get it right.
Sonia Rykiel as it it were a short i in English phonetic.
Oscar de la Renta, Giuseppe Zanotti ^^
O L I V I A T A S T E M Y S K I N
You don't really say theyskens like taste, at least hat's not what we say in Belgium
Iam from georgia and gvasalia isnt pronounced with silent g.
I should have guessed that her pronunciations would be wrong from the outfit she’s wearing!
Okay idk about others but Demna Gvasalia is pronounced Demna Gvasalia. Why would G be silent lmao
Some of the French brands are not pronounced correctly : Hermès not with a Z at the end but an S, it’s not Lanvine but Lanvin. Anyway, I’ll still pronounce Levi’s the French way cause it’s horrible in English.
cool
Demna Gvasalia's correct pronunciation is the one you said was wrong :). the "right one is wrong. Its Demna not Dimna and G is not silent in Georgian
You pronounced lanvin wrong :( it hurt my French soul
Hermes Balmain and Nicolas Ghesquiere too :(
Lanvin is pronounced Lawn-VAHN
anyone hoping for a Vetements pronunciation?
Vet-mahn. It's just French for clothing, I'm sure there are audible pronunciations on Google.
I don’t know 90% of these designers.
Is this like a comedy video xD am I not getting a joke?
Demna Gvasalia is Demna Gvasalia. I am georgian and I know it 100%. We don't have silent letters. We pronounce every 33 letter, that we have.
Every Designer Name You Can't Pronounce......and neither can you!
han kjobenhavn pronounciation please
Balmain is Bal-man or Bal-mahn
CA-RO-LI-NA HE-RRE-RA! Una bien difícil!
Ann Demeulemeester is definitely not pronounced as stated in this video. Not even close. There's actually a video on UA-cam called "How to pronounce Ann Demeulemeester".
It's actually Gurung (both "u"s are short), a common Nepali last name. Imagine saying "guru" with "ng"at the end. गुरुङ in Nepali.
second ti me you pronounced gurung was correct
Umm u pronounced Demna Gvasalia wrongly :/ G isn't silent
It's REE-kee-el and Lahn-vahn.
... n I thought your family is italian, haha 🙈
I will never find out the proper pronunciation fore Cesare Paciotti
Che-Za-Re Pa-cho-tti
Lol 😂
